How to Start Pure water business in Nigeria | Pictures for tutorial

The
business of pure water production is quite simple, and here I'm going to run
down the step by step guide "How to Start Pure Water Business in
Nigeria" without much stress. In water business just like every other
business, the number one priority should be service to humanity then, the money
will come naturally. Like any other consumables, life is involved so try and
put everything in place properly.Here
are the things needed to get started:

1. Get a place
of business - You
need to acquire a property or rent a place, getting your own property and
developing it is the most desirable option as that will save you cost in the
long run.

2. Register your
business name -
The name your water products will be known for. Branding is very important in
business, so in addition to your business name, design a very professional logo
for your product because perception is the best sales man. Make your brand
stands out among others!

3. Sink a
Borehole -
The most common source of water for commercial drinking water production like
sachet water and bottled water is borehole, let there be borehole within your
premises for constant water supply to your pure water production factory.

4. Install
Overhead Tanks -
This will serves as reservoir to supply water to the distillation system; it
has to be overhead to ensure proper pressure to be able to pump down the
distillation chamber.

5. Install
Distillation System -
This could just be a micro filters and cup filters depending on your start up
capacity, but if you can afford it, then you go for more comprehensive
distillation system. Otherwise, use Purification process known as Ultra Violet
sterilization bulbs process. After distillation, you need to take your product (the
resultant water) to the laboratory for results.

6. Get NAFDAC
Approved -
NAFDAC Is the agency that supervise foods and drugs in Nigeria, you need their
approval to carry out business that involved consumable products of which water
is one of them.

7. Acquire
Automatic Sealing Machine - Automatic sealing machine cost between N400,000
to a Million Naira. Go for the ones that seals or produces about 40 sachets per
minute.

8. Employ Staffs - You will need
minimum of five persons to work in your factory for a start then increase with
time as the demand may be.

9. Distribution
Mechanism -
Buy truck for your distribution of rent but renting can be expensive and
disappointing most of the times. My recommendation is that you buy your own
truck if you can afford it at the beginning.

10. Get Power
Generation -
You know the situation of power supply in Nigeria, except if things changes
tomorrow. If not, you will need a standby power generating set, and 25KVA will
be just perfect for the job.

With
all these in place, you are good to go! For a start up and depending on what
you already have like land and other things, you may need up to five million
naira for a start up in order to get the sealing machines, nylon and other
materials, and pay for labour for about some months before it begin to yield
profits. Your cost could be higher if you are also paying for rent and hiring
trucks.

Assuming
you have only one Automatic sealing machine that produces your sachet water and
you can afford to have only one delivery van that distribute your products. one
automatic machine (at 100% utilization) Capacity: 40 sachets per minute i.e.
2,400 sachets in 1hour Which is equivalent to 120bags in 1 hour.

Let’s
conclude that; on the average, you produce 100 bags in 1hour, and assuming you
was able to work for 4hours in a day. i.e. one machine producing 400 bags of
pure water in a day. (Sincerely, an average sachet water factory in Nigeria
today produces between 700 bags to 800 bags per machine in a day) so it all
depends on you.

Still
based on our assumption of 400 bags in a day and a bag is being sold between
N70 and N80. So let’s also assume N70 per bag; 400 bags x N70 per bag = N28,
000 per day. N28, 000 x 28 working days in a month = N784, 000 per month. Wait
and see; N784, 000 x 12 months in a year, = N9, 408,000
